similar to: multiple imputation based on a condition

I've built two RF objects (RF1 and RF2) and have tried to combine them, but I get the following error: Error in rf$votes + ifelse(is.na(rflist[[i]]$votes), 0, rflist[[i]]$votes) : non-conformable arrays In addition: Warning message: In rf$oob.times + rflist[[i]]$oob.times : longer object length is not a multiple of shorter object length Both RF models use the same variables, although

Hi, I wrote a script in order to simulate data, which I will use for evaluating missing data and imputation. However, I'm having trouble with the last part of my script, in which a dataframe is constructed without missing values. This is my script: y1 <- rnorm(10,0,3) y2 <- rnorm(10,3,3) y3 <- rnorm(10,3,3) y4 <- rnorm(10,6,3) y <- c(y1,y2,y3,y4) a1 <-rep(1,20) a2

Hi, I want to impute the missing values in my data set multiple times, and then combine the results (like multiple imputation, but manually) to get a mean of the parameter(s) from the multiple imputations. Does anyone know how to do this? I have the following script: y1 <- rnorm(20,0,3) y2 <- rnorm(20,3,3) y3 <- rnorm(20,3,3) y4 <- rnorm(20,6,3) y <- c(y1,y2,y3,y4) x1 <-

I have always avoided missing data by keeping my distance from the real world. But I have a student who is doing a study of real patients. We're trying to test regression models using multiple imputation. We did the following (roughly): f <- aregImpute(~ [list of 32 variables, separated by + signs], n.impute=20, defaultLinear=T, data=t1) # I read that 20 is better than the default of

Dear all; I am trying to use HMISC imputation function to perform multiple imputations on my data and I keep on getting errors for the code given in the help files. When using "aregImpute" the error is; >f <- aregImpute(~y + x1 + x2 + x3, n.impute=100) Loading required package: acepack Iteration:1 Error in .Fortran("wclosepw", as.double(w), as.double(x),

Hello, I have a general question about combining imputations as well as a question specific to the rms and Hmisc packages. The situation is multiple regression on a data set where multiple imputation has been used to give M imputed data sets. I know how to get the combined estimate of the covariance matrix of the estimated coefficients (average the M covariance matrices from the individual

Hello, I'm working on a Cox Proportional Hazards model for a cancer data set that has missing values for the categorical variable "Grade" in less than 10% of the observations. I'm not a statistician, but based on my readings of Frank Harrell's book it seems to be a candidate for using multiple imputation technique(s). I understand the concepts behind imputation, but using

I am running into a problem using 'mix' for multiple imputation (over continuous and categorical variables). For the way I will be using this I would like to create an imputation model on some training data set and then use this model to impute missing values for a different set of individuals (i.e. I need to have a model in place before I receive their information). I expected that all

I am doing multiple imputation with Hmisc, and can't figure out how to replace the NA values with the imputed values. Here's a general ourline of the process: > set.seed(23) > library("mice") > library("Hmisc") > library("Design") > d <- read.table("DailyDataRaw_01.txt",header=T) > length(d);length(d[,1]) [1] 43 [1] 2666

Dear all, I am using transcan to impute missing values (single imputation). I have several dichotomous variables in my dataset, but when I try to impute the missings sometimes values are imputed that were originally not in the dataset. So, a variable with 2 values (severe weight loss or no/limited weight loss) for example coded 0 and 1, shows 3 different values after imputation (0, 1 and 2). I

Dear R-users, I want to multiple impute missing scores, but only for a few subgroups in my data (variable 'subgroups': only impute for subgroups 2 and 3). Does anyone knows how to do this in MICE? This is my script for the multiple imputation: imp <- mice(data, m=20, predictorMatrix=pred, post=post, method=c("", "", "", "",

Hello all. I am trying to run PAN, multilevel multiple imputation program, in R to impute missing data in a longitudinal dataset. I could successfully run the multiple imputation when I only imputed one variable. However, when I tried to impute a time-varying covariate as well as a response variable, I received an error message, “Error: subscript out of bounds.” Can anyone tell if my commands

I am a new user of R for Windows, enthusiast about the many functions of the Design and Hmisc libraries. I combined the results of a Cox regression model after multiple imputation (of missing values in some covariates). Now I got my vector of coefficients (and of standard errors). My question is: How could I use directly that vector to run programs such as 'nomogram', 'calibrate',

I have a data set with 10 variables, and about 8000 instances (or objects/rows/samples). In addition I have one more ('class') variable that I have about 10 instances for, but for which I wish to impute values for. I am a little confused how to go about doing this, mostly as I'm not well-versed in it. Do I train the SOM with a data object that contains just the first 10 variables

  I have timeseries data for some factors, and some missing values are there in those factors, I want impute those missing values without disturbing the distribution of that factor, and maintaining the correlation with other factors. Pl. suggest me some imputation methods. I tried some functions in R like aregImpute, transcan. After the imputation I am unable to retrive the data with imputed

I am working with some survival data with missing values. I am using the mice package to do multiple imputation. I have found code in this thread which handles pooling of the MI results: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-May/132180.html Now I would like to plot a survival curve using the pooled results. Here is a reproducible example: require(survival) require(mice) set.seed(2) dt

Dear R-help, I am trying to impute missing data for the first time using R. The norm package seems to work for me, but the missing values that it returns seem odd at times -- for example it returns negative values for a variable that should only be positive. Does this matter in data analysis, and/or is there a way to limit the imputed values to be within the minimum and maximum of the actual

Dear all, I am trying to impute data for a range of variables in my data set, of which unfortunately most variables have missing values, and some have quite a few. So I set up the predictor matrix to exclude certain variables (setting the relevant elements to zero) and then I run the imputation. This works fine if I use predictive mean matching for the continous variables in the data set. When I

Hello, this is not really an R-related question, but since the posting guide does not forbid asking non-R questions (even encourages it to some degree), I though I'd give it a try. I am currently doing some secondary analyses of the PISA (http://pisa.oecd.org) student data. I would like to treat missing values properly, that is using multiple imputation (with the mix package). But I am not
